Tromperia El zacB+

1322 Rice St, St Paul, MN 55117 · Mexican restaurant · St Paul

Excellent al pastor from a real trompo, fast counter service, and strong value for tacos; some complaints about occasional blandness, portion variance, and takeout accuracy.

Why this grade

Tromperia El Zac delivers solid neighborhood dining through exceptional trompo al pastor and friendly, attentive service, earning its strong local reputation. However, inconsistent execution on secondary items like birria and tamales prevents a higher grade, while occasional peak-hour waits and takeout accuracy lapses reflect operational constraints typical of casual taquerias. Fair pricing and authentic technique make it competitive with respected local favorites, though it lacks the consistency needed for grade A territory.

One caveat: A few reviews cite blandness or dryness in specific items like birria broth or tamales
